Hello Vibrant Health Seekers,
Infections may seem like something we “catch,” but the truth is—what you eat every day can profoundly shape your body’s ability to fight back. 🛡️
This month, we’re diving into Dr. Michael Greger’s chapter “How Not to Die from Infections” and focusing on the immune-boosting power of plant-based nutrition. If you're looking to strengthen your defenses, reduce inflammation, and fortify your resilience from the inside out—this is for you.
And most importantly? We do this together. Because transformation in isolation can feel overwhelming. But surrounded by support, encouragement, and like-minded women—it becomes possible, sustainable, and even joyful. 💚

🌱 July’s Featured Recipes
All recipes are from Dr. Michael Greger’s How Not to Die Cookbook and are filled with anti-inflammatory, immune-supportive ingredients:
🥣 Spicy Asian Vegetable Soup (Page 52)
This flavorful broth is loaded with garlic, ginger, cruciferous veggies, and chili—a combination known to reduce inflammation and enhance immune response.
🥬 Braised Tempeh & Bok Choy with Spicy Ginger Sauce (Page 128)
Tempeh offers fermented, gut-friendly protein, while bok choy and ginger provide antioxidants and antimicrobial benefits that support immune and digestive health.
🍒 Cherry Berry Smoothie (Page 215)
A refreshing blend of cherries, berries, and flaxseed rich in vitamin C, anthocyanins, and omega-3s—nutrients that help your body recover and resist infection.
